[A method for studying total population morbidity in the Czech Republic in 1986].
The authors evaluate the method applied in an extensive investigation of the general morbidity of the Czech population implemented in 1986, based on treated morbidity, not combined with the method of actual medicinal examinations. The population sample was selected by one-stage selection, randomization was made by birth data (seventh day in odd month). In the investigation participated all health community and factory doctors, as well as paediatricians and adolescent medical officers in the Czech Republic. Morbidity was assessed retrospectively from the documentation of health community doctors. The investigation confirmed the hypothesis that this method can be used under local conditions for periodic examinations of the general morbidity of the population.
